lyrics

"Time to Dream"

sometimes it’s hard to tell
when I hear the thunder roar
if It’s miles and miles away
or right here by the door
the patient and the doctor
have tried to tell me
sometimes what you hear
you can’t see

the mirrors on the wall
are making me feel small
I can’t recall
the way to stand
that won’t offend anybody
in the end

a storm is out across the bay
counting up receipts for damage paid

thank you for the gifts
the lovely oven mitts
you didn’t mean to send them
did you dear
the lines are hard to read
between is what I need
a good night’s sleep
and a pint of beer

monumental skies
reflecting in the eyes
of my father’s home
the spirits flying high
the smell of apple pie
and packing foam

a last hurrah tonight,
the stars are still in sight
drinks rimmed with the salt
of our childhood esteem

the bottle’s shifting weight,
the hour’s getting late
it’s time to dream
time to dream
time to dream
time to dream
time to dream
time to dream
